BOUGHT A NEW CAR IN APRIL 2014 FROM TOYOTA DEALER (TOYOTA OF MCKINNEY). SINCE THEN HAVING PROBLEM WITH REAR WINDSHIELD. IN THE NIGHT DRIVING THERE IS A REFRACTION OF LIGHTS FROM THE CARS COMING FROM BEHIND. DEALER IS NOT READY TO FIX THIS ISSUE SAYING ITS A DESIGN FLAW FROM TOYOTA. WHEN CONTACTED TOYOTA THEY ARE NOT ACCEPTING THE ISSUE SAYING ITS USER PREFERENCE. ITS REALLY ANNOYING TO DRIVE IN NIGHTS ALSO ITS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN VISIBILITY IS DISTURBED AFFECTING TO SEE CARS COMING BEHIND. THIS ISSUE IS IN ALL COROLLA 2014 MODELS AND EVEN IN CAMRY. NOT SURE HOW THEY CAN NEGLECT THIS ISSUE. WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE CORRECT CONTACTS AND HELP TO FILE COMPLAIN AGAINST TOYOTA. THANKS IN ADVANCE. *TR

I WAS DRIVING IN A NORMAL LOCAL ROAD CONDITION IN A SUNDAY AFTERNOON. I WAS AWARE A 6" CRACK ON THE DRIVE-SIDE WINDSHIELD. IT STARTED FROM THE EDGE. NEXT MORNING WHEN I DROVE TO WORK, IT GREW TO ABOUT 2' LONG. IT SCARED ME AND I TOOK IMMEDIATELY ACTION AND FIXED IT NEXT DAY (TUESDAY). *TR

HELLO, I DRIVE 100 MILE EVERY DAY FROM PITTSBURGH, CA TO HAYWARD, CA FOR SCHOOL. I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2014 COROLLA LE, BECAUSE I WANTED A RELIABLE CAR FOR MY DAILY COMMUTE. I HAVE NOTICED AT SPEEDS OVER 60 MPH, MY CAR SEEMS TO BE BLOWN AROUND BY WIND AND THERE IS NO WIND GUST STRONG ENOUGH TO DO THAT. I HAVE VISITED THE DEALERSHIP (DUBLIN TOYOTA) TWICE IN OTHER TO FIND OUT THE PROBLEM, THEY SAID EVERYTHING IS UP TO SPEC. THEY HAVE DONE ALIGNMENT AND EVEN ADJUSTED THE TIRE PRESSURE, YET THERE IS NO IMPROVEMENT ON THE STEERING OR HANDLING OF THE CAR. THE CAR WAVES ON THE FREEWAY AND IT IS A STRUGGLE TO KEEP IT IN ONE LANE. I REALLY FEEL UNSAFE IN THE CAR AND I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING INCLUDING LOADING UP MY CAR WITH WEIGHT IN ORDER TO MAKE HEAVIER. I KNOW SOMETHING IS EITHER WRONG WITH THE REAR SUSPENSION AND AXLE OR THE POWER STEERING IS SIMPLY BAD. PLEASE FIND OUT WHY THIS IS THIS WAY FROM TOYOTA, BECAUSE I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR ON THE FREEWAY. I NOTICED THIS PROBLEM STARTING THE DAY I BROUGHT THE CAR. *TR

ON MAY 6, 2014, MY WIFE [XXX] AND I WERE DRIVING HOME TO WLLISTON, VERMONT FROM ARLINGTON, VERMONT. WE WERE DRIVING NORTH AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH IN OUR 2014 TOYOTA COROLLA LE. AT THE BLINKING LIGHT INTERSECTION OF DORSET STREET AND CHEESE FACTORY ROAD, WE MADE A RIGHT HAND TURN AND DROVE EAST. IT WAS A VERY DARK NIGHT AND I MIS-JUDGED THE DISTANCE TO THE END OF CHEESE FACTORY ROAD, WHERE YOU COULD EITHER TURN LEFT OR RIGHT. AT THE INTERSECTION OF CHEESE FACTORY ROAD AND HINESBURG ROAD, THERE ARE NO BLINKING LIGHTS OR REFLECTORS, AND, IN THE DARKNESS, I MISSED THE STOP SIGN, WENT STRAIGHT THROUGH THE INTERSECTION AND CRASHED INTO A DITCH ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD. UPON IMPACT, MY AIR BAGS DEPLOYED, AND I FELT ONLY A SHARP PAIN IN MY LOWER BACK. IMMEDIATELY GETTING OUT OF THE CAR, I MOVED TO THE PASSENGER SIDE TO FIND MY WIFE OUT OF THE CAR ON HER HANDS AND KNEES, CRYING OUT THAT SHE WAS UNABLE TO BREATHE. IN THE HOSPITAL [XXX] WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A CRACKED STERNUM, AN L 1 COMPRESSION FRACTURE IN HER BACK, 3 BROKEN RIBS AND A BROKEN LEFT WRIST. SHE SPENT 9 DAYS IN ICU. IT HAS ONLY BEEN IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS THAT MY WIFE AND I HAVE HAD AN IN-DEPTH DISCUSSION OF THE ACCIDENT. [XXX] SAYS THAT HER SEAT BELT DID NOT HOLD HER BACK, AND THAT HER CHEST HIT THE DASH BEFORE HER AIR BAG DEPLOYED; YET, AT IMPACT SHE WAS ABLE TO SEE THAT MY AIR BAG HAD DEPLOYED BEFORE HERS. THIS WOULD PROBABLY ACCOUNT FOR THE SEVERITY OF HER INJURIES AND FOR THE RELATIVELY MINOR INJURIES FOR MINE. WE ARE NOW AWARE THAT THE 2013 TOYOTA COROLLA HAD AIRBAG ISSUES AND WONDER IF OUR 2014 TOYOTA COROLLA MIGHT HAVE SIMILAR PROBLEMS. WE HAVE ALSO BEEN TOLD BY MEDICAL PERSONNEL THAT TREMENDOUS FORCE WOULD BE REQUIRED TO CRACK A STERNUM, THE KIND OF FORCE THAT WOULD COME FROM HITTING THE DASH BOARD. FOR THESE REASONS WE ARE FILING A CLAIM. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

MYSELF AND MY SISTER WERE GOING FROM EAST BOSTON TO I93 VIA THE SUMNER TUNNEL ONTO ROUTE 93 TO THE ROCKINGHAM MALL AND I WAS DRIVING 55MPH AT OR AROUND ANDOVER/ NORTH ANDOVER IN THE MIDDLE LANE AND SUDDENLY THE CAR STARTED VEERING TO THE LEFT AND THEN TO THE RIGHT FOR ABOUT 1-2 MINUTES. I HAD BOTH HANDS ON THE WHEEL AND I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO STEERING AT ALL, NO POWER, NO REGULAR, NOTHING! THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO AND ALL THE CARS AROUND ME WHERE PASSING ME AND GOING INTO DIFFERENT LANES AND THEY ALL STAYED AS FAR AWAY FROM ME AS POSSIBLE AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT CAME BACK AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. I LEASED IT AT ATLANTIC TOYOTA AND I CALLED AND ASKED TO SPEAK WITH THE HEAD OF THE SERVICE DEPT. AND I WAS TOLD EVERYONE HAD GONE HOME FOR MEMORIAL DAY WEEKEND AND CALL BACK TUESDAY MORNING, AND THEN I ASKED TO SPEAK TO THE HEAD OF THE DEALERSHIP AND I GOT NO ANSWER AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO LEAVE A MESSAGE OR ANYTHING, THE ONLY PERSON I SPOKE TO WAS THE RECEPTIONIST AND SHE COULDN'T GIVE ME ANY ANSWERS OR ANYONE TO CALL, SHE WASN'T AT ALL INTERESTED WHEN I TOLD HER MY SISTER AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED, ALL SHE COULD SAY WAS CALL BACK AFTER THE MEMORIAL WEEKEND AND I WAS FURIOUS AND SHE HUNG UP. *TR
